Minutes for Agenda Item 4.1: Dynamics (benefits and disadvantages) of relying on chatbots
when writing assignments
The meeting commenced with Prof Song addressing the issue of declining students'
performance due to academic dishonesty, particularly the lack of originality in assignments.
The purpose of the meeting was to share and educate student representatives about the
consequences of relying on chatbots when preparing assignments. Dr Sibeko then presented
her findings from analyzing trends in assignment content, highlighting the lack of original
responses from students in certain modules, who instead rely on the internet and AI to
generate answers and essays.
During Dr Sibeko's presentation, Nthabiseng raised a concern about the patronizing tone in
referring to educating students about chatbots, emphasizing the role of student
representatives in sharing their opinions. Dr Sibeko acknowledged the importance of student
input and stressed the need for a change in behavior and attitude towards using chatbots for
assignments.
